I want to count the number of times a word is being repeated in the review string
I am reading the csv file and storing it in a python dataframe using the below line
pandas 0.20.3 has pandas.Series.str.split() which acts on every string of the series and does the split. So you can simply split and then count the number of splits made
len(reviews['review'].str.split('disappointed')) - 1
pandas.Series.str.split
